APPENDIX CRITERIA FOR. AND METHODS OF DETERMINATION OF, CENTRAL BUDGET SUPPORT CAPITAL FOR INVESTMENT IN DEVELOPMENT OF INFRASTRUCTURE SYSTEMS
OF COASTAL ECONOMIC ZONES (To the Prime Minister's Decision No.J26/2009/QD-TTg of October 26, 2009) I. Criteria and methods of determination of criteria for allocation of central budget support capital for coastal economic zones 1. Criterion of attraction of investment projects and works: A (score) This criterion values the degree of investment capital attraction of projects and works implemented in coastal economic zones, based
on the comparison with a base project or work capitalized at VND 20 trillion corresponding to 15 points, which is determined according
to the following formula:
Total investment capital of investment projects and works means the registered total investment capital, calculated in VND billion,
of projects and works with investment certificates or investment decisions granted under the law on investment before July 31 of
the plan year (excluding projects and works already commissioned or completed, operation-terminated, temporarily stopped or rescheduled
for implementation: not implemented within 12 months after being granted the investment certificates or investment decisions or delayed
for 12 months behind the schedule prescribed in the investment certificates or investment decisions). 2. Criterion of the degree of difficulty in budget balance: B (score) This criterion values the degree of difficulty faced by provinces or centrally run cities with coastal economic zones in balancing
the local budget, which is determined as follows: a/ If the ratio of central budget support capital to the total local budget expenditure is less than 40%, B = 0 (zero): b/ If the ratio of central budget support capital to the total local budget expenditure is 40% or more, B will be calculated according
to the following formula: 3. Criterion of land area for infrastructure development in the plan year: C (score) This criterion values the degree of land use for development of infrastructure of coastal economic zones in the plan year, based on
the comparison with the base land area of 25 ha corresponding to 10 points, which is determined according to the following formula: Infrastructure development land area means the total land areas of all traffic works, major technical infrastructure facilities of
coastal economic zones, projected to be constructed in the plan year (excluding the land areas of works already completed and put
to use). 4. Criterion of the degree of budget remittance of coastal economic zones: D (score) This criterion values the degree of budget remittance of coastal economic zones, based on the comparison with the base contribution
level of VND KM) billion corresponding to 5 points, which is determined according to the following formula: Total budget revenue in a coastal economic zone means the total collected tax amounts (excluding value-added tax and excise tax on
imports) and other lawful revenues in the coastal economic zone, which are paid into the State Treasury of the year preceeding the
plan year. 5. Additional criteria: a/ Criterion of the level of compensation, ground clearance of big investment projects in coastal economic zones: E (score) This criterion is determined on the basis of comparison between the total used land areas of big projects and a base project of 150
ha corresponding to 10 points, which is determined according to the following formula: Total used land area of big projects means the total land area under compensation and ground clearance of big investment projects
in economic zones, which have been granted the investment certificates or investment decisions (applicable only to on-going projects
with an implementation duration not exceeding 2 years). b/ Criterion of the degree of development priority of coastal economic zones: F (score) This criterion is determined as follows: - Coastal economic zones enjoying development priority under the Prime Minister's Decision No. 1353/QD-TTg of September 23, 2008:
F = 10 points; - The remaining coastal economic zones: F = 0 (zero) point. The data for determination of points of the above-said criteria are the data of the year preceeding the plan year. 6. Total score of a coastal economic zone: K (score) K=A+B+C+D+E+F The total score will be rounded on the principle that 0.5 point or higher is rounded up to 1 point. II. Determination of central budget support capital for a coastal economic zone The central budget support capital of a plan year for a coastal economic zone is determined according to the following formula: Of which: Vi. is total central budget support capital, calculated in VND billion, of the plan year for the coastal economic zone i; V is total central budget capital, calculated in VND billion of the plan year to support investment in balance with all localities
having coastal economic zones; Ki is total score of the coastal economic zone i. determined under the provisions of Section I; n is number of coastal economic zones established by the time of formulation of an annual plan | |||||||
